I was born in 1978, into one of the Soviet states of USSR. As far as I remember, life was actually OK back then. For me as a child at least.

What I'm trying to say is that THINGS will not make one happy. The more you can choose from the more you want. It doesn't matter in the long run.
As does not matter which brand of camera you are shooting with. The art lies within you. If it is there, then you can equally successfully choose whatever method of delivery you prefer - be it a painting, a black & white negative, or a full colour, razor-sharp digital image. YOU must master the technology of your choosing, not the other way round. So instead of spending your milk-money on the latest and greatest, take some time to deeply understand and control the features of apparatus already at hand.
